Contact Improv Weekend Workshop & Jam, May 14-16

We are pleased to share that Yves Candau will be joining our dance weekend festival as facilitator & teacher on May 14-16, 2010

It would be great to know that *you* are joining us too!

No regular jam this weekend at Phoenix Center since we will all be at the Weekend Event at Concourse Hall.

BIO: "Yves Candau was doing a PhD in Cognitive Sciences when he discovered dance. Gradually his interest shifted from the abstract to a more embodied research, which he has been passionately pursuing ever since. Yves has taught Contact Improvisation since 2001, giving classes and workshops in France, Italy, Germany and Canada. His teaching has also been influenced by his study of Aikido and the Alexander Technique."

Also, here's a great video about contact improv. I think it really captures the essence for anyone, new or old
